but they don't like that much, cos it's called Formosa

I finally slept last night. I slept all day. And when I say "I slept all day" I don't mean I woke up at 11 this morning. I mean I woke up at 6 tonight.

When I finally woke up I could not feel my legs. AWESOME.

I woke up, I ate a piece of cold pizza, I scratched my lower back / ass with a plastic fork. It. was. AWESOME.

Exchanged gifts with a friend tonight. Technically, I ditched my gift to him at his door last night, but we're not going there. I now have a pair of slippers with Brian Griffin's head on them. AWESOME. Saw A Wish for Wings That Work, and of course engaged in the annual Olive, the Other Reindeer tradition.

Just going to take a moment to mention the various topics of discussion that come up with this particular friend on a regular basis:
-Chia Pets
-The Clapper
-Various nicknames that people use for our (non-Chia) pets
-dead celebrities
-Kohlberg and quantum theory
-various methods of transportion to Hell
-FARK.com

...yep.



My mood is... improving, I guess. I got my Christmas shopping done. I've been having money problems lately, so I didn't think I'd be able to pull it off, at all. But I did. I think I did pretty well, too. Getting it all done (in 12 hours, no less) did a lot to fix things.

Someday I will drive to Jersey to chill with violentdoll. Her entries made under the influence of... well, anything she imbibes in occasionally, make me laugh more than a girl should be allowed to do.

BTW k7point5 I did some Googling. HOLY. CRAP. When you said "his sister" I instantly assumed... her, but I didn't think he was missing... that, and I definitely wasn't thinking of him in particular. For those of you who don't know what I may be "HOLY CRAPPING" about... Nip/Tuck. That's all.

sheilanorthway of kzzz_news, or is she cleverduck, sent me a party mix for the ages, but YSI won't let me have it. I'll try again. And I'll win. DAMMIT.

And... that's all for the entry. Thanks kids. Free xmas music and a rework of "California Uber Alles", and possibly a picture of my good friend Thom Zemanek and his new kitten Nóialbínói, who is definitely beating the cuteness crap out of KGW Fritz Charles Unicron Cargo Pit, coming later today.

Merry fucking Christmas, indeed.

It seems that one of my siblings has decided not to come back to the house for Christmas. It's more important to her to be with her friend and her friend's family.

Power to her. I should have headed elsewhere when I could have. I should have spent the money I set aside for gifts on alcohol or amphetamines instead. I should have done a lot of things differently, but I've been gone from here so long that I didn't realize that it wasn't just me but the family had in fact dissolved into a group of people who happen to share the same last name and some facial features.


The past two months have been hard enough. I lost my cat (lame, I know). I got booted from school. I lost a lot of my supposedly close friends. I have a bed in a corner of the family room. I landed and then lost a shitty job with shitty pay. I got dumped. I got bummed, and then I got more bummed. I cracked up my stupid car. I don't have medical or dental insurance right now, so now is a really bad time for my bad shoulder or my crazy disease or my broken teeth to act up (which they all are doing right now.) My great-aunt died Thursday, and I hardly knew she was sick to begin with. I don't even know what day of the week it is. I may have mentioned this all before. And now it seems that my lovely family is even falling apart.

I am moving to the 'Cuse as soon as I possibly can. I don't know what I expect to find out there, but I don't want to sit on deck if this stupid ship is taking on water.
